      Verdict

      Four recent winners on show here but APOTHECARY makes the most appeal. She scored at the first time of asking over 7f at Lingfield in December and John Gosden's filly should improve for the extra distance. She beat subsequent winner Appealing on that occasion so Marco Botti must fancy stablemate Rockgoat has a chance. The latter won at this track on his introduction and the form looks superior to that of the other recent winners Cool Hand Luke and Zain Princess, who only landed a seller here last month, though the reliable Availed Speaker can't be ignored.
